PARAMUS, N.J., (CBSNewYork) — The roads may be clear for now, but driving is still tricky because of the enormous mountains of snow.

As WCBS 880’s Jim Smith reported, drivers in Paramus were cautiously inching out into busy Route 4 on Sunday, their views blocked by the roadside hills.

“You’ve got to be really careful because the mounds are so high, especially coming out of a side street,” Joe, of New Milford, N.J., said.

“Yeah, it’s an accident waiting to happen.”

Natasha, of Hackensack, said it’s getting dangerous trying to merge with the cars whipping by at highway speeds.
